How to skip extension method execution

Hello,

let's say we have a standard ClassA, which has run method.

Then by some partner company it was extended and some logic added in the run method, let's say xxxClassA_Extension.

So, to simplify the question, let's say we have a checkbox, if the checkbox is active the process executing normally and if not active then we need to skip extension run method and only run original standard code.

Is it somehow possible without actually modifying the xxxClassA_Extension class?

Thanks

How to skip extension method execution

Hi Johnny,

Layan is correct. You can't change the behavior of the standard coding or a partner extension. It is impossible to control which extension will run first. You can try to find a place before or after this run method in classes that calls this method. You can then check if there is an option preventing running ClassA and run a copy of the class in your own model or maybe after all calls create an extension that corrects all actions like the original code.

If you need more guidance, then please share details about the standard code and the code created by the partner. We might then better understand the scenario and guide if something would be possible or not. Anyway, you can also try to contact the partner company if they are willing to embed the checkbox and condition in their coding.

Hi vuivui,

I think it's not possible. The "if" condition needs to be done in the extension method.

Thanks,
